Is anyone still moderating this group? The last message is from 2007, and I
submitted a few bugs that haven't appeared. Should I post them somewhere else
from now on?

Messages do go to a moderator. Were the bugs you submitted for v3.7?

I believe the question is: is that moderator still moderating or did he
forget to read his inbox for the past month? :)

Yes, they are for the beta.

And also what happens after reading it. Would the poster usually
be notified if the moderator decides against posting? Otherwise
it feels a bit like a black hole. I remember submitting some
problem last year and never hearing about it again.

I see only four bugs posted for the last two years, so even
taking into account POV's high standard of quality I think
that can't quite reflect the real state of affairs ;)

Of course, it's all voluntary on free time so I don't
complain, but it doesn't really encourage bug reporting
which developers usually depend on.
